We need secure downloads (both for FE and BE) for current project
And we use latest DAM 1.1RC1

FE  download works fine with naw_securedl
This extension is easy to patch, after small patch I have files with 
utf filenames with Russian characters  downloading OK.

BE secure download is planned feature of DAM.
I am not sure when it will be implemented, so most probably we will do 
simple "external" security:
in .htaccess configure all document (.doc .pdf etc) to be redirected to 
php script that will check, if BE session exists and then send this 
requested file to user (like in naw_securedl for FE)
